Itinerary

  1. During this seven-hour excursion departing from Tangier, let yourself be driven to the heights of the Rif mountains, up to Chefchaouen, a former Berber post which now houses a superb walled medina. The main square represents the heart of Chefchaouen and presents a kasbah built in the eighteenth century, a central mosque and coffees menus authentically Moroccan. The market, crowded, offers a mix of utensils and Moroccan souvenirs, with excellent deals. The city itself is easy to explore. The Kasbah, built by Moulay Ismaïl, is now in ruins and at its side is the Great Mosque. Although the old medina is small, you will find many souks selling a wide variety of products. Finally, take a tour through the Jewish quarter behind the jeweler's shop to experience the difference in style and atmosphere compared to the main Arab part.

About Tangier

Tangier sits where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, a storied Moroccan port of whitewashed medina lanes, a hilltop kasbah and views to Spain.

The medina climbs from the port to the kasbah, where the old sultan's palace, Dar el Makhzen, holds a museum with views across the Strait of Gibraltar. The Grand Socco and Petit Socco were long the meeting points of the city, and their cafés recall Tangier's decades as an international zone that drew writers, musicians and artists.
